I really relate to this, but from the opposite direction. There was this beautiful fat girl that I had the biggest crush on in high school, but I was terrified to talk to her, so she had no idea. I did find her on Facebook many years later; by then she was a grandmother and I was married so of course nothing was going to happen. Of course I didn't tell her how I'd felt - what good would that have done? I did find out that she attended our ten-year high school reunion; I might have been ready for her if I'd gone and run into her there. She was married with a kid but separated from her husband at the time. I have no complaints about my life, but it's only natural to wonder what might have happened. Maybe in another universe I ended up with her. Or with any number of other women.

I had s crush on a teacher, he called at my home, my patents allowed him up to my room as he was a teacher. He was so bold...

Here's a thought: look him up on Facebook, or Instagram?

That’s a hard read…

I think many of us look back and regret some lost opportunities. You are young--let this motivate you to take advantage next time something seems possible. Could you still contact him?? You never know--he clearly liked you as well.

Of course he was thinking the same thing about you

Awww...what a sweet thought

Personally I think you are terrific. You’re smart and nice for starters.
